Scarlett Moffatt To Co-Host New Show

Channel 4 has announced that Scarlett Moffatt and Alan Carr are to co-host a new entertainment show. The pilot, which has yet to be named, is due to be recorded later this year.

Moffatt has also been announced as the host of Streetmate – a new daytime series of the 90s classic show. The show will see Scarlett help shy and retiring singletons to find a date in towns and cities across the UK.

Scarlett Moffatt said: "I can't believe Channel 4 have asked me to present this iconic dating show. I remember watching Davina [McCall] on Streetmate when I was younger and thinking females can present entertainment shows too, I want to do that when I'm older. It's such a fun show and it's two of my favourite things to do, chat to randomers and a love story."

Dom Bird, C4 Head of Formats, added: "As one of the stand-out stars of Gogglebox, our audience has grown to love Scarlett over the last few years. She has already been a superb addition to the new series of E4's Virtually Famous and we are delighted to be keeping her in the Channel 4 family with both the Alan Carr entertainment pilot and an exciting new series of Streetmate."

Streetmate was commissioned by David Sayer for Channel 4 and will be made by Tiger Aspect Productions – an Endemol Shine company. The creator of the Streetmate format is Gabe Sachs.

The Alan & Scarlett pilot was ordered by Sarah Lazenby, entertainment commissioning editor.
